Techcapri closing
« on: September 22, 2015, 04:44:23 PM »
Note on techcapri site:

NOTICE: After 15 years of service to the Aussie Capri community, techCapri.com will be going dark on October 8, 2015 due to Comcast’s discontinuance of Personal Web Page service. Thanks for the memories and contacts I’ve made around the world.

As soon as read this post I started downloading the entire contents of the techcapri website and now have it all on my private server.

Thanks blueamber for the heads up about the unfortunate news, Techcapri has always been a great resource for our beloved cars.

How much space does he need to relocate?

If you heard it from an automotive forum, get a second, and third opinion.

Aw, TechCapri has always been a great resource

Can we get TeamCapri to host the pdf files? It's not like extra traffic. Who goes there comes here and vise versa.

I've actually corresponded with Rex and he is certainly willing to pass along the content on TechCapri.  Just need a place to move it to.  Has anyone from TeamCapri actually spoken to Rex?

I mirrored the information on my personal page the last time TechCapri went down for a while, it's still there.

http://werbatfik.com/Capri_Service_Manual.htm

TeamCapri will likely be moving to a new host sometime within the next month or two (if I can find the time to arrange everything proper)
We should be able to make a page for it once we have the necessary space to host it.

Whomever's been in touch with Rex, please shoot me a message

Who owns the "TechCapri.com" domain name? I'd like to purchase it, donate it to TeamCapri and keep it going as an extension of TeamCapri......

Oct 8th come and gone and it's still up and running? Did something good happen or is Comcast just slow?

Maybe waiting on the Great Pumpkin? 🎃
